Articulatory clarity and variability before and after surgery for tongue cancer

Thomas Tienkamp, Fleur van Ast, Roos van der Veen +10

Surgical treatment for tongue cancer can negatively affect the mobility and musculature of the tongue, which can influence articulatory clarity and variability. In this study, we i…

Neural Representations for Modeling Variation in Speech

Martijn Bartelds, Wietse de Vries, Faraz Sanal +3

Variation in speech is often quantified by comparing phonetic transcriptions of the same utterance. However, manually transcribing speech is time-consuming and error prone. As an a…
